Steve wants to work in china.And V m helping him with this.I have introduced him to the dean of the Overseas Section of our university.He is very interested in Steve.He wants to know if Steve can work here teaching the overseas students Chinese.I have sent the message to Steve.I'm sure he’d be very happy to accept the job.However,I hope he could try harder to improve himself. Othervise,all the overseas students would speak with his terrible pronunciation!61.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.The three of them were all language majors.B.Steve and Jim were more alike in character.C.The author didn't enjoy talking with Steve.D.Their living condition was rather poor.62.What is the author,s opinion of Steve?A.Steve was a very hardworking fellow.B.Steve enjoyed cooking Chinese food.C.Steve enjoyed shopping more than Jim.D.Steve's Chinese accent was quite pure.63.Which of the following is true about Jim?A.Going out with girls cost him a lot of time.B.He had a French way of making friends.C.He learned French in order to date Paris girls.D.He liked doing housework.64.What does the last sentence of the first paragraph implies that___?A.Steve didn't like offering help to others.B.American people only eat their own food.C.Americans and Chinese differ in their sense of value.D.Steve wanted Jim to do his own shopping.65.From the last paragraph,we can learn that_____.A.Jim is a very good husband.B.Steve enjoys teaching Chinese.C.The author works for overseas students.D.The three friends still keep in touch.Passage TwoHow often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and old people wishing they were young again.Each age has its pleasures and its pains，,and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities.If a child has good parents,he is well fed,looked after and loved.It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.In addition,life is always presenting new things to the child—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known.But a child has his pains:He is not so free to do what he wishes to do;he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong.Therefore,a child is not happy as he wishes to be.When the young man starts to earn his own living,he becomes free from discipline of school and parents;but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities.With no one to pay for his food his clothes,or his room,he has to work if he wants to live comfortably.If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child,he will go hungry.And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents,he may get himself into trouble.If,however,he works hard,goes by the law and has good health,he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be;but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy.With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life;they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them;and,perhaps best of all,they can,if their life has been a useful one,fell the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest,leaving everything to others.66.The happiest people should be those who______.A.Face up to difficulties in lifeB.Hope to be young againC.Enjoy life in different ageD.Wish to be grown up67.The word“they”underlined in Line5,para.2refers to_____A.Older peopleB.New thingsC.ChildrenD.Interests68.A child has his pains because______.A.He can not do whatever he wants toB.He is not allowed to play in rainC.He has a lot of new things to learnD.He can not play at the seaside freely69.When a child becomes a grown-up,he is supposed to_____.A.live comfortablyB.Take responsibilitiesC.Make progress in jobD.Impress the society70.The best title of the passage might be_____.A.Pains and AgesB.Differences in AgesC.The Best Age to BeD.Happiness and AgesPassage ThreeLife really should be one long journey of joy for children who are bora with a world of wealth at their tiny feet.But experts on psychological research now believe that silver spoons can leave a bitter taste.If suicide statistics are a sign of happiness,then the rich are a miserable lot. Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves.Dr.Robert Coles,an internationally famous doctor,is the world's top expert on the influence of money on children.He has wriTitten a well-received book on the subject,The Privileged Ones, and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little.Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich，,"says the53-year-old doctor,such as better health,education and future work expectation.But most important is the quality of family-life.Money can't buy love."It can buy a lot of other things,though,and that's where the trouble starts.Rich kids have so much to choose from that they often become confused.Their parents'over favoring can make them spoiled.They tend to travel more than other children,from home to home and country to country, which often makes them feel restless."But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world；."adds Mr. Coles,"and they are more self-assured."Today's rich parents perhaps have realized that their riches can be more of a burden than a favor to their children.So their priority is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.71.According to the passage,children of rich families______.A.enjoy travelingB.can buy loveually commit suicideD.are not always happy72.Dr.Robert Coles believes that______.A.being rich has as many advantages as being poorB.rich children often get too little entertainmentC.rich children sometimes can't enjoy the thing they are most in need ofD.rich children aren't given enough things73.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.It is love that is always lacking in rich and poor families alike.B.Silver spoons can sometimes leave a bitter taste.C.Money can't buy everything.D.Rich children are often confused because they have so much to choose from.74.The expression“silver spoons”in Paragraph1means_____.A.very expensive spoonsB.rich peopleC.wealthD.spoons made of silver75.This article is written mainly to tell readers that.A.the rich are more likely to do away with themselvesB.money can bring a lot of things,including loveC.life is always happy for children of rich parentsD.rich parents should realize what is important in the family is love rather than moneyPassage FourCharlene,a16-year-old student at a high school,found herself faced with a maths test to which she knew none of the answers.Rather than fail,she took the test out with her and filled in the answer s with the help of her friends.During a break,she got back into the classroom without being seen,crumpled the test with her shoe,and left it lying on the floor.The teacher thought it had been drop ped when the tests were collected;she corrected it,and Charlene received a B.Cheating is,of course,nothing new.But today,educators are finding that cheating on the part of students has become more frequent than in the past.Whether it is copying a friend's homework, using a prepared sheet on an exam,stealing advance copies of a final,writing down rules in one’s hand,or paying someone else to write a term paper,cheating appears to have gained acceptance among a growing number of students between13and19.In a1978study of cheating at twenty-two high schools in Georgia,it was found that cheating was common among good and poor students alike—although both boys and girls said they thought boys cheated more.Why is student cheating on the rise?No one really knows.Some blame cheating on a general loss of good values among today's youth.They point to facts showing increased damage of public thin gs and school stealing and think that reports,such as Watergate have disappointed youth about the honesty of people in higher positions.Others think that today's youth are far more practical than their forefathers.In the late sixties and e arly seventies,students were filled with imaginations about changing the world,but today's students feel great stress to succeed.76.According to Paragraph1,Charlene took the test out because_____.A.her friends could answer none of the problemsB.she tore the test paper to piecesC.she stepped her shoes on the test paperD.she did not want to fail in the math test77.Charlene passed the test because_____.A.she answered all the questions by herselfB.she did the test by cheatingC.she persuaded her teacher to give her a BD.she returned to the classroom to redo the test78.Which of the following is not an example to show that cheating is becoming more and more common?A.A student pays another for doing a test paper.B.A student writes down something to be tested before an exam.C.A student gets well prepared in his studies before an exam.D.A student gets homework from his classmate and then copies it.79.The1978study of cheating in Georgia shows that______.A.only students in the24high schools cheated in examinationsB.both good and poor students cheated in examinationsC.boys liked cheating while girls did not like itD.more girls cheated in examinations than boys did80.One of the facts for the rise of cheating is that_____.A.more and more public things are damagedB.good values disappoint studentsC.more and more students begin to stealD.honest people are in higher positionsPartⅣTranslation(2x10)Directions:There are10sentences in this section.Please translate sentences81-85from Chinese into English, and translate sentences86-90from English into Chinese.Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.51.这个漂亮干净的城市给外国旅游者留下了深刻的印象。

Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two.TEXT AInundated by more information than we can possibly hold in our heads, we're increasingly handing off the job of remembering to search engines and smart phones. Google is even reportedly working on eyeglasses that could one day recognize faces and supply details about whoever you're looking at. But new research shows that outsourcing our memory —and expecting that information will be continually and instantaneously available — is changing our cognitive habits.Research conducted by Betsy Sparrow, an assistant professor of psychology at Columbia University, has identified three new realities about how we process information in the Internet age. First, her experiments showed that when we don't know the answer to a question, we now think about where we can find the nearest Web connection instead of the subject of the question itself. A second revelation is that when we expect to be able to find information again later on, we don't remember it as well as when we think it might become unavailable. And then there is the researchers' final observation: the expectation that we'll be able to locate information down the line leads us to form a memory not of the fact itself but of where we'll be able to find it.But this handoff comes with a downside. Skills like critical thinking and analysis must develop in the context of facts: we need something to think and reason about, after all. And these facts can't be Googled as we go; they need to be stored in the original hard drive, our long-term memory. Especially in the case of children, "factual knowledge must precede skill," says Daniel Willingham, a professor of psychology, at the University of Virginia — meaning that the days of drilling the multiplication table and memorizing the names of the Presidents aren't over quite yet. Adults, too, need to recruit a supply of stored knowledge in order to situate and evaluate new information they encounter. You can't Google context.Last, there's the possibility, increasingly terrifying to contemplate, that our machines will fail us. As Sparrow puts it, "The experience of losing our Internet connection becomes more and more like losing a friend." If you're going to keep your memory on your smart phone, better make sure it's fully charged.81. Google's eyeglasses are supposed to ______A.improve our memoryB.function like memoryC.help us see faces betterD.work like smart phones82. According to the passage, "cognitive habits" refers to ______A.how we deal with informationB.functions of human memoryC.the amount of informationD.the availability of information83. Which of the following statements about Sparrow's research is CORRECT?A.We remember people and things as much as before.B.We remember more Internet connections than before.C.We pay equal attention to location and content of information.D.We tend to remember location rather than the core of facts.84. What does the author mean by "context" ?A.It refers to long-term memory.B.It refers to a new situation.C.It refers to a store of knowledge.D.It refers to the search engine.85. What is the implied message of the author?A.Web connections aid our memory.B.People differ in what to remember.C.People need to exercise their memory.D.People keep memory on smart phones.TEXT BI was a second-year medical student at the university, and was on my second day of rounds at a nearby hospital. My university's philosophy was to get students seeing patients early in their education. Nice idea, but it overlooked one detail: second-year students know next to nothing about medicine.Assigned to my team that day was an attending — a senior faculty member who was there mostly to make patients feel they weren't in the hands of amateurs. Many attendings were researchers who didn't have much recent hospital experience. Mine was actually an arthritis specialist. Also along was a resident (the real boss, with a staggering mastery of medicine, atleast to a rookie like myself). In addition, there were two interns (住院实现医生). These guys were just as green as I was, but in a scarier way: they had recently graduated from the medical school, so they were technically MDs.I began the day at 6:30am. An intern and I did a quick check of our eight patients; later, we were to present our findings to the resident and then to the attending. I had three patients and the intern had the other five — piece of cake.But when I arrived in the room of 71-year-old Mr. Adams, he was sitting up in bed, sweating heavily and panting(喘着). He'd just had a hip operation and looked terrible. I listened to his lungs with my stethoscope, but they sounded clear. Next I checked the log of his vital signs and saw that his respiration and heart rate had been climbing, but his temperature was steady. It didn't seem like heart failure, nor did it appear to be pneumonia. So I asked Mr. Adams what he thought was going on."It's really hot in here, Doc," he replied.So I attributed his condition to the stuffy room and told him the rest of the team would return in a few hours. He smiled and feebly waved goodbye.At 8:40 am., during our team meeting, "Code Blue Room 307!" blared from the loudspeaker.I froze.That was Mr. Adams's room.When we arrived, he was motionless.The autopsy (尸体解剖) later found Mr. Adams had suffered a massive pulmonary embolism (肺部栓塞). A blood clot had formed in his leg, worked its way to his lungs, and cut his breathing capacity in half. His symptoms had been textbook: heavy perspiration and shortness of breath despite clear lungs. The only thing was: I hadn't read that chapter in the textbook yet. And I was too scared, insecure, and proud to ask a real doctor for help.This mistake has haunted me for nearly 30 years, but what's particularly frustrating is that the same medical education system persists. Who knows how many people have died or suffered harm at the hands of students as naïve as I, and how many more will?86. Why was the author doing rounds in a hospital?A.He himself wanted to have practice.B.Students of all majors had to do so.C.It was part of his medical training.D.He was on a research team.87. We learn that the author's team members had ______A.some professional deficiencyB.much practical experienceC.adequate knowledgeD.long been working there88. While the author was examining Mr. Adams, all the following symptoms caught hisattention EXCEPT ____ .A.steady temperatureB.faster heart rateC.breathing problemD.moving difficulty89. "His symptoms had been textbook" means that his symptoms were ______ .A.part of the textbookB.explained in the textbookC.no longer in the textbookD.recently included in the textbook90. At the end of the passage, the author expresses ______ about the medical education system.A.optimismB.hesitationC.supportD.concernTEXT CThe war on smoking, now five decades old and counting, is one of the nation's greatest public health success stories — but not for everyone.As a whole, the country has made amazing progress. In 1964, four in ten adults in the US smoked; today fewer than two in ten do. But some states —Kentucky, South Dakota and Alabama, to name just a few — seem to have missed the message that smoking is deadly.Their failure is the greatest disappointment in an effort to save lives that was started on Jan. 11, 1964, by the first Surgeon General's Report on Smoking and Health. Its finding that smoking is a cause of lung cancer and other diseases was major news then. The hazards of smoking were just starting to emerge.The report led to cigarette warning labels, a ban on TV ads and eventually an anti-smoking movement that shifted the nation's attitude on smoking. Then, smokers were cool. Today, many are outcasts, rejected by restaurants, bars, public buildings and even their own workplaces. Millions of lives have been saved.The formula for success is no longer guesswork: Adopt tough warning labels, air public service ads, fund smoking cessation programs and impose smoke-free laws. But the surest way to prevent smoking, particularly among price-sensitive teens, is to raise taxes. If you can stop them from smoking, you've won the war. Few people start smoking after turning 19.The real-life evidence of taxing power is powerful. The 10 states with the lowest adult smoking rates slap an average tax of $2.42 on every pack — three times the average tax in the states with the highest smoking rates.New York has the highest cigarette tax in the country, at $4.35 per pack, and just 12 percent of teens smoke —far below the national average of 18 percent. Compare that with Kentucky, where taxes are low (60 cents), smoking restrictions are weak and the teen smoking rate is double New York's. Other low-tax states have similarly dismal records.Enemies of high tobacco taxes cling to the tired argument that they fall disproportionately on the poor. True, but so do the deadly effects of smoking — far worse than a tax. The effect of the taxes is amplified further when the revenue is used to fund initiatives that help smokers quit or persuade teens not to start.Anti-smoking forces have plenty to celebrate this week, having helped avoid 8 million premature deaths in the past 50 years. But as long as 3,000 adolescents and teens take their first puff each day, the war is not won.91. What does "counting" mean in the context?A.Including.B.Calculating.C.Relying on.D.Continuing.92. According to the context, "Their failure" refers to _______ .A.those adults who continue to smokeB.those states that missed the messageC.findings of the reportD.hazards of smoking93. The following are all efforts that led to the change of attitude on smoking EXCEPT _____ .A.cigarette warning labelsB.rejection by the publicC.anti-smoking campaignsD.anti-smoking legislation94. According to the author, raising tax on cigarettes _____ .A.is unfair to the poorB.is an effective measureC.increases public revenueD.fails to solve the problem95. What is the passage mainly about?A.How to stage anti-smoking campaigns.B.The effects of the report on smoking and health.C.The efforts to cut down on teenage smoking.D.Tax as the surest path to cut smoking.。

Symbolic of national unity as they claim to be,their very history—and sometimes the way they behave today–embodies outdated and indefensible privileges and inequalities.At a time when Thomas Piketty and other economists are warning of rising inequality and the increasing power of inherited wealth,it is bizarre that wealthy aristocratic families should still be the symbolic heart of modern democratic states.The most successful monarchies strive to abandon or hide their old aristocratic ways.Princes and princesses have day-jobs and ride bicycles,not horses(or helicopters). Even so,these are wealthy families who party with the international1%,and media intrusiveness makes it increasingly difficult to maintain the right image.Wh ile Europe’s monarchies will no doubt be smart enough to survive for some time to come,it is the British royalswho have most to fear from the Spanish example.It is only the Queen who has preserved the monarchy’s reputation with her rather ordinary(if well-heeled) granny style.The danger will come with Charles,who has both an expensive taste of lifestyle and a pretty hierarchical view of the world.He has failed to understand that monarchies have largely survived because they provide a service–as non-controversial and non-political heads of state.Charles ought to know that as English history shows,it is kings,not republicans,who are the monarchy’s worst enemies.21.According to the first two Paragraphs,King Juan Carlos of Spain[A]used turn enjoy high public support[B]was unpopular among European royals[C]cased his relationship with his rivals[D]ended his reign in embarrassment22.Monarchs are kept as heads of state in Europe mostly[A]owing to their undoubted and respectable status[B]to achieve a balance between tradition and reality[C]to give voter more public figures to look up to[D]due to their everlasting political embodiment23.Which of the following is shown to be odd,according to Paragraph4?[A]Ar istocrats’excessive reliance on inherited wealth[B]The role of the nobility in modern democracies[C]The simple lifestyle of the aristocratic families[D]The nobility’s adherence to their privileges24.The British royals“have most to fear”be cause Charles[A]takes a rough line on political issues[B]fails to change his lifestyle as advised[C]takes republicans as his potential allies[D]fails to adapt himself to his future role25.Which of the following is the best title of the text?[A]Carlos,Glory and Disgrace Combined[B]Charles,Anxious to Succeed to the Throne[C]Carlos,a Lesson for All European Monarchs[D]Charles,Slow to React to the Coming ThreatsTEXT2Just how much does the Constitution protect your digital data?The Supreme Cpurt will now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant if the phone is on or around a person during an arrest.California has asked the justices to refrain from a sweeping ruling,particularly one that upsets the old assumptions that authorities may search through the possessions of suspects at the time of their arrest.It is hard,the state argues,for judges to assess the implications of new and rapidly changing technologies. The court would be recklessly modest if it followed California’s advice.Enough of the implications are discernable,even obvious,so that the justice can and should provide updated guidelines to police,lawyers and defendants.They should start by discarding California’s lame argument that exploring the contents of a smartphone-a vast storehouse of digital information is similar to say,going through a suspect’s purse.The court has ruled that police don't violate the Fourth Amendment when they go through the wallet or porcketbook,of an arrestee without a warrant. But exploring one’s smartphone is more like entering his or her home.A smartphone may contain an arrestee’s reading history,financial history,medi cal history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence.The development of“cloud computing.”meanwhile,has madethat exploration so much the easier.But the justices should not swallow California’s argument whole.New,disruptive technology sometimes demands novel applications of the Constitution’s protections.Orin Kerr, a law professor,compares the explosion and accessibility of digital information in the21st century with the establishment of automobile use as a digital necessity of life in the20th:The justices hadto specify novel rules for the new personal domain of the passenger car then;they must sort out how the Fourth Amendment applies to digital information now.26.The Supreme court,will work out whether,during an arrest,it is legitimate to[A]search for suspects’mobile phones without a warrant.[B]check suspects’phone contents without being authorized.[C]prevent suspects from deleting their phone contents.[D]prohibit suspects from using their mobile phones.27.The author’s attitude toward California’s argument is one of[A]tolerance.[B]indifference.[C]disapproval.[D]cautiousness.28.The author believes that exploring one’s phone content is comparable toA]getting into one’s residence.[B]handing one’s historical records.[C]scanning one’s correspondences.[D]going through one’s wallet.29.In Paragraph5and6,the author shows his concern that[A]principles are hard to be clearly expressed.[B]the court is giving police less room for action.[C]phones are used to store sensitive information.[D]citizens’privacy is not effective protected. Kerr’s comparison is quoted to indicate that(A)the Constitution should be implemented flexibly.(B)New technology requires reinterpretation of the Constitution.(C)California’s argument violates principles of the Constitution.(D)Principles of the Constitution should never be altered. Text3The journal Science is adding an extra round of statistical checks to its peer-review process,editor-in-chief Marcia McNutt announced today.The policy follows similar efforts from other journals,after widespread concern that basic mistakes in data analysis are contributing to the irreproducibility of many published research findings.“Readers must have confidence in the conclusions published in our journal,”writes McNutt in an editorial. Working with the American Statistical Association,the journal has appointed seven experts to a statistics board of reviewing editors(SBoRE).Manu will be flagged up for additional scrutiny by the journal’s internal editors, or by its existing Board of Reviewing Editors or by outside peer reviewers.The SBoRE panel will then find external statisticians to review these manus.Asked whether any particular papers had impelled the change,McNutt said:“The creation of the‘statistics board’was motivated by concerns broadly with the application of statistics and data analysis in scientific research and is part of Science’s overall drive to increase reproducibility in the research we publish.”Giovanni Parmigiani,a biostatistician at the HarvardSchool of Public Health,a member of the SBoRE group,says he expects the board to“play primarily an advisory role.”He agreed to join because he“f ound the foresight behind the establishment of the SBoRE to be novel,unique and likely to have a lasting impact.This impact will not??be through the publications in Science itself,but hopefully through a larger group of publishing places that may want t o model their approach after Science.”31、It can be learned from Paragraph I that[A]Science intends to simplify its peer-review process.[B]journals are strengthening their statistical checks.[C]few journals are blamed for mistakes in data analysis.[D]lack of data analysis is common in research projects.32、The phrase“flagged up”is the closest in meaning to[A]found.[B]revised.[C]marked[D]stored3、Giovanni Parmigiani believes that the establishment of the SBoRE may[A]pose a threat to all its peers[B]meet with strong opposition[C]increase Science’s circulation.[D]set an example for other journals34、David Vaux holds that what Science is doing nowA.adds to researchers’worklosd.B.diminishes the role of reviewers.C.has room for further improvement.D.is to fail in the foreseeable future.35.Which of the following is the best title of the text?A.Science Joins Push to Screen Statistics in PapersB.Professional Statisticians Deserve More RespectC.Data Analysis Finds Its Way onto Editors’DesksD.Statisticians Are Coming Back with ScienceText4Two years ago,Rupert Murdoch’s daughter,Elisabeth,spoke of the“unsettling dearth of integrity across so many of our institutions”.Integrity had collapsed,she argued, because of a collective acceptance that the only“sorting mechanism”in society shou ld be profit and the market. But“it’s us,human beings,we the people who create the society we want,not profit”.Driving her point home,she continued:“It’s increasingly apparent that the absence of purpose,of a moral language within government,media or business could become one of the most dangerous goals for capitalism and freedom.”This same absence of moral purpose was wounding companies such as News International,she thought,making it more likely that it would lose its way as it had with widespread illegal telephone hacking.As the hacking trial concludes—finding guilty one ex-editor of the News of the World,Andy Coulson,for conspiring to hack phones,and finding his predecessor, Rebekah Brooks,innocent of the same charge—the wider issue of dearth of integrity still stands.Journalists are known to have hacked the phones of up to5,500people.This is hacking on an industrial scale,as was acknowledged by GlennMulcaire,the man hired by the News of the World in2001 to be the point person for phone hacking.Others await trial.This saga still unfolds.In many respects,the dearth of moral purpose frames not only the fact of such widespread phone hacking but the terms on which the trial took place.One of the astonishingrevelations was how little Rebekah Brooks knew of what went on in her newsroom,how little she thought to ask and the fact that she never inquired how the stories arrived.The core of her successful defence was that she knew nothing. In today’s world,it has become norma l that well-paid executives should not be accountable for what happens in the organisations that they run.Perhaps we should not be so surprised.For a generation,the collective doctrine has been that the sorting mechanism of society should be profit.The words that have mattered are efficiency, flexibility,shareholder value,business-friendly, wealth generation,sales,impact and,in newspapers, circulation.Words degraded to the margin have been justice,fairness,tolerance,proportionality and accountability.The purpose of editing the News of the World was not to promote reader understanding,to be fair in what was written or to betrayy common humanity.It was to ruin lives in the quest for circulation and impact.Ms Brooks may or may not have had suspicions about how her journalists got their stories,but she asked no questions,gave no instructions—nor received traceable,recorded answers.36.Accordign to the first two paragraphs,Elisabeth was upset by(A)the consequences of the current sorting mechanism.(B)companies’financial loss due to immoral practices(C)governmental ineffectiveness on moral issues.(D)the wide misuse of integrity among institutions.37.It can be inferred from Paragraph3that(A)Glenn Mulcaire may deny phone hacking as a crime.(B)more journalists may be found guilty of phone hacking.(C)Andy Coulson should be held innocent of the charge.(D)phone hacking will be accepted on certain occasions.38.The author believes that Rebekah Brooks’s de fence(A)revealed a cunning personality.(B)centered on trivial issues.(C)was hardly convincing.(D)was part of a conspiracy.39.The author holds that the current collective doctrine shows(A)generally distorted values.(B)unfair wealth distribution.(C)a marginalized lifestyle.(D)a rigid moral code.40Which of the following is suggested in the last paragraph?(A)The quality of writings is of primary importance.(B)Common humanity is central to news reporting.(C)Moral awareness matters in editing a newspaper.(D)Journalists need stricter industrial regulations. Part BDirections:In the following text,some sentences have been removed. For Questions41-45,choose the most suitable one from the fist A-G to fit into each of the numbered blanks.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET.(10points)How does your reading proceed?Clearly you try to comprehend,in the sense of identifying meanings for individual words and working out relationships between them,drawing on your explicit knowledge of English grammar(41)______you begin to infer a context for the text,for instance,by making decisions about what kind of speech event is involved:who is making the utterance, to whom,when and where.The ways of reading indicated here are without doubt kinds of of comprehension.But they show comprehension toconsist not just passive assimilation but of active engagement inference and problem-solving.You infer information you feel the writer has invited you to grasp by presenting you with specific evidence and cues(42) _______Conceived in this way,comprehension will not follow exactly the same track for each reader.What is in question is not the retrieval of an absolute,fixed or“true”meaning that can be readoff and clocked for accuracy,or some timeless relation of the text to the world.(43) _______Such background material inevitably reflects who we are, (44)_______This doesn’t,however,make interpretation merely relative or even pointless.Precisely because readers from different historical periods,places and social experiences produce different but overlapping readings of the same words on the page-including for texts that engage with fundamental human concerns-debates about texts can play an important role in social discussion of beliefs and values.How we read a given text also depends to some extent on our particular interest in reading it.(45)_______suchdimensions of read suggest-as others introduced later in the book will alsodo-that we bring an implicit(often unacknowledged)agenda to any act of reading.It doesn’t then necessarily follow that one kind of reading is fuller,more advanced or more worthwhile than another.Ideally,different kinds of reading inform each other,and act as useful reference points for and counterbalances to one another.Together, they make up the reading component of your overall literacy or relationship to your surrounding textual environment.[A]Are we studying that text and trying to respond in a way that fulfils the requirement of a given course?Reading it simply for pleasure?Skimming it for information?Ways of reading on a train or in bed are likely to differ considerably from reading in a seminar room.[B]Factors such as the place and period in which we are reading,our gender ethnicity,age and social class will encourage us towards certain interpretation but at the same time obscure or even close off others.[C]If you are unfamiliar with words or idioms,you guess at their meaning,using clues presented in the contest. On the assumption that they will become relevant later,you make a mental note of discourse entities as well as possible links between them.[D]In effect,you try to reconstruct the likely meanings or effects that any given sentence,image or reference might have had:These might be the ones the author intended.[E]You make further inferences,for instance,about how the test may be significant to you,or about its validity —inferences that form the basis of a personal response for which the author will inevitably be far less responsible.[F]In plays，novels and narrative poems,characters speak as constructs created by the author,not necessarily as mouthpieces for the author’s own thoughts.[G]Rather,we ascribe meanings to test on the basis of interaction between what we might call textual and contextual material:between kinds of organization or patterning we perceive in a text’s formal structures(so especially its language structures)and various kinds of background,social knowledge,belief and attitude that we bring to the text.Section III TranslationDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET.(10points)Within the span of a hundred years,in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries,a tide of emigration—one of the great folk wanderings of history—swept from Europe to America.46)This movement,driven by powerful and diverse motivations,built a nationout of a wilderness and,by its nature,shaped the character and destiny of an uncharted continent.47)The United States is the product of two principal forces-the immigration of European peoples with their varied ideas,customs,and national characteristics and the impact of a new country which modified these traits. Of necessity,colonial America was a projection of Europe. Across the Atlantic came successive groups of Englishmen, Frenchmen,Germans,Scots,Irishmen,Dutchmen,Swedes, and many others who attempted to transplant their habits and traditions to the new world.48)But,the force of geographic conditions peculiar to America,the interplay of the varied national groups uponone another,and the sheer difficulty of maintaining old-world ways in a raw,new continent caused significant changes.These changes were gradual and at first scarcely visible.But the result was a new social pattern which, although it resembled European society in many ways,hada character that was distinctly American.49)The first shiploads of immigrants bound for the territory which is now the United States crossed the Atlantic more than a hundred years after the15th-and 16th-century explorations of North America.In the meantime,thriving Spanish colonies had been established in Mexico,the West Indies,and South America. These travelers to North America came in small, unmercifully overcrowded craft.During their six-to twelve-week voyage,they subsisted on barely enough food allotted to them.Many of the ship were lost in storms, many passengers died of disease,and infants rarely survived the journey.Sometimes storms blew the vessels far off their course,and often calm brought unbearably long delay.“To the anxious travelers the sight of the American shore brought almost inexpressible relief.”said one recorderof events,“The air at twelve leagues’distance smelt as sweet as a new-blown garden.”The colonists’first glimpse of the new land was a sight of dense woods.50) The virgin forest with its richness and variety of trees was a veritable real treasure-house which extended from Maine all the way down to Georgia.Here was abundant fuel and lumber.Here was the raw material of houses and furniture,ships and potash,dyes and naval stores. Section IV WritingPart A51.Directions:You are going to host a club reading session.Write an email of about100words recommending a book to the club members. You should state reasons for your recommendation.You should write neatly on the ANSWER SHEET.Do not sign your own name at the end of the e Li Ming instead.Do not write the address.(10points)Part B52.Directions:Write an essay of160-200words based on the following drawing.In your essay you should1)describe the drawing briefly2)explain its intended meaning,and3)give your commentsYou should write neatly on ANSWER SHEET.(20points)一.Close test1、What2、Concluded3、On4、Compared5、Samples6、Insignificant7、Know8、Resemble9、Also10、Perhaps11、To12、Drive13、Ratherthan14、Benefits15、Faster16、understand17、Contributory18、Tendency19、Ethnic20、seeII Reading comprehensionPart AText121.C ended his regin in embarrassment22.A owing to their undoubted and respectable status23.C the role of the nobility in modern democracy24.D fails to adapt himsself to his future role25.B Carlos,a lesson for all European MonarchiesText226.B check suspect's phone contents without being authorized.disapprovalgetting into one's residence29.D citizens'privacy is not effectively protected new technology requires reinterpretation of the constitution Text3journals are strengthening their statistical checks marked33.D set an example for other journals34.C has room for further improvementscience joins Push to screen statistics in papersText436.A the consequences of the current sorting mechanism37.B more journalists may be found guilty of phone hacking38.C was hardly convincing39.A generally distorted values40.C moral awareness matters in editing a newspaper Part Bif you are unfamiliar...you make further inferences...Rather,we ascribe meanings to...factors such as...are we studying that...Part C46)在多种强大的动机驱动下，这次运动在一片荒野上建起了一个国家，其本身塑造了一个未知大陆的性格和命运。
